You know where I would put my money. If people knew when they were being watched, then shows such as "Candid Camera", "Scare Tactics", "Punk'd", "Cheaters", etc., would not exist.
Damn Swamster, you keep up-to-date with the TV dontcha? Throw that nasty thing away. It's poisoning your MIND, man! THEY DON'T CALL IT PROGRAMMING FOR NOTHING

I keep up to date with EVERYTHING!
Technology, finance, philosophy, world news, cars, etc. Information is my addiction.
FYI I have seen each of those shows once (except for Candid Camera - which I watched weekly as a child). Am I forgiven now?

Perhaps not but the differences are striking.

well swami you get to TRANSMIT out into the internet, where with television you're just sitting there RECIEVING with no say in the matter.
At least here somebody can go "HEY THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!" or "I OBJECT!"
Its interactive, whereas television is not - its a pure stream of calculated bullshit right to your brain - the internet is a big more give AND take.
-------------------- Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me. In addition: SHPONGLE

Nice sidetrack folks, but no one has explained why the "victims" in these shows (or Ted Bundy's victims, for that matter) are unable to sense danger or that of being watched.

I would think that would be obvious.
Either people can sense themselves being watched and those people weren't "on" at the time.
Or there ain't no such thing.
My opinion is the latter though I am willing to entertain the notion there is a "sensing" sense and it is faint to strong depending on other factors.

strumpling: "television you're just sitting there RECIEVING"
sure...in a way...but you are ignoring how television networks function.
if people dont watch a show, the show goes off the air, if they do watch, the show stays on.
shows are tailor-made for markets. Intelligent shows are made for intelligent people, if intelligent people do not watch TV, then their will be no intelligent shows.
so do your part and watch lots of TV!

Yes there are, 'Sponge Bob Square Pants' and 'The Daily Show' come to mind.
-------------------- To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.' Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence. Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains. Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.

Swami said: Many talk of this type of energy as if it is a palpable, detectable field surrounding a person. "When Jeff walked into the room, it chilled considerably." "Everyone loves Mary. She brightens up any gathering."
I contend that it is ALL body language, sound of voice, appearance, reputation / perception and possibly pheremones.
I seriously doubt any person screened from the five senses could tell if it was Jeff or Mary that walked into the room.
UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS TROLLING
